I recently looked at my old watch and noticed this grime... I assumed it was bits of old skin mixed ith sweat and skin oils. But "Body Cheese" is much more accurate a term.

If there were something to really dislike it would be body cheese. [...] [...] I love my job because it is a lot of fun. I spend my day solving problems.
